It was a perfect stay! Modern guesthouse in a calm neighbourhood 10 minutes walk to the centre. Both rooms and bathrooms were very clean. Completely equipped kitchen. Highly recommended!

Beautifully designed rooms in the basement of a house in a nice quiet neighbourhood close to the BSI bus station. Well-equipped kitchen to use. It is about 10 mins walk to the shopping areas of Rekyavik. We had a car and could park outside the house easily.

Extremely friendly and helpful host and hostess Rough bathtowels, but we used them and they gave an invigorating rub. Cold water does not smell sulfurous.

– In a safe and accessible neighbourhood – It's of walking distance to Perlan – Wifi was reliable – Liked that there was a boiler available

Very nice place to stay, close to the walking distance to the city centre and the main bus station. The staff is very nice and helpful. Since the place provides only a few rooms, it is also very peaceful and quiet. Extra bonus is a fully equipped kitchen, which is at the disposal.

A great place, good location for university and downtown (all easily walkable), lovely residential area, very cozy rooms, heating can be adjusted in room and reacts fast (this can be important even in Mid-summer in Iceland), wonderful new shower+bathroom, well-equipped kitchen. Will stay here again!

Lovely, clean rooms. Lots of space. Guesthouse owner very accommodating – stayed up late to receive me at 01:00 after a red-eye flight into Reykjavik. Free wifi. Use of kitchen facilities and shelf space for food. Clean bathroom (shared).

Iceland was fantastic! The countryside was unique, and we especially enjoyed the Golden Circle tour, and the Blue Lagoon. Our Smaragata 1-bedroom apartment with kitchenette and private facilities was close to the city bus terminal, and an easy 10-15 min walk to the city and major attractions. The owners were friendly and very helpful.

Excellent location to BSI station (3min walk), nice and quiet residential area. Rooms and bathrooms are very new and very clean. Laufey was so lovely to deal with and stayed up late for me to arrive at 2am. Checkout was nice and late! Hair dryer available for use.

Short walk to most CBD locations and the BSI Terminal is at the end of the road. Area is quiet so no real noise from the outside. We stayed out the back in the separate appartment and found that a great little set up. Host was very attentative, and took the time to show you around.

Cécile from Germany, July 15, 2016 at 11:10 pm

The hotel is well located between the city center and BSI (walking distance is 2 minutes) in a very quiet street. I had a large and comfortable room.

It is very close to the lake and town. The studio apartment is lovely and very comfortable, and the hosts are very accommodating. We would definitely stay again if we return to Reykjavik.

Excellent guesthouse with very fiendly host! I lost the hotel towel at the blue lagoon but was not charged for this. Location is excellent between bus station and city centre. Rooms are somewhat dark, this has pro (good to sleep) and con (not much daylight)

Smaragata Rooms was ideal! Our room was extremely cozy and the woman who worked the reception (Laufey) was incredibly sweet, accommodating, and, helpful! We would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable bed, nice furnishings in the room. Shared bathrooms quite nicely fitted out (one is new). A short 10-15 min walk from the centre of Reykjavik, and right near the Hallgrímskirkja.

The room we had was huge and very nicely decorated. They even had an electrical adapter to use, I thought that was very thoughtful. The staff was very accommodating with our schedule.

Marianna from U.S.A., June 2, 2016 at 11:37 am

Very friendly. New, modern, clean. Excellent Wi-Fi. Comfy bed. Beautiful quiet neighborhood, close to Hallgrimskirkja and right next to BSÍ bus station for tours. Nice TV. Just ask around wonderful!

Steven from U.S.A., May 27, 2016 at 9:54 pm

Clean and very well appointed. Helgi & Laufey were great to talk with. Overall, it was a very nice experience. The shared bathrooms and shower was exceptionally clean and beautiful.

I stayed for 2 weeks at Smáragata Rooms, it was probably the best accommodation I have ever stayed in. The owners were so attentive, everything was so clean, the rooms were really nice. The kitchen was well equipped. The owners were really nice people. Would definitely return.

I'd like to start by saying what wonderful owners the couple who run Smáragata Rooms are. They are very friendly, welcoming and will do their very best to accommodate your (reasonable) needs. The property is in a sleepy, quiet residential street but is by no means in a bad location – infact, it's excellent. The guest rooms have a separate entrance of their own so that you can come & go as you please, without disturbing the family who live above. The bsí bus station is literally around the corner and a 24-hour service station (which sells Subway sandwiches and other food) is even closer. It takes less than ten minutes to walk to the main street in the centre of the city (Laugavegur) and Tjörnin pond is five minutes by foot. The exquisite Hallgrímskirkja church is right up the (not-very-steep) hill, which is the major landmark of the city of Reykjavik. There is a fully kitted-out kitchen, equipped with everything that you need to cook a full meal, along with a fridge/freezer & microwave. You can even use a washing machine and hang clothes in a warm laundry room should anything get wet. The rooms have excellent central heating which is adjustable along with windows that open. The rooms are secure, über-stylish and very cosy – most of the furniture is made my one of the very talented and creative owners of this lovely guest house – also designed by him. There is no tv in the rooms, but the free Wi-Fi is fast and stable so if you have the FilmOn app on your iPad/iPhone, you can stream live uk tv, no problem. Take your laptops! The beds are very comfortable and to me, this place feels like a home-from-home. I also think it's worth mentioning that there is a high standard of cleanliness here – everything was spotless. I absolutely loved staying here and will be recommending it to friends who plan to stay in Reykjavik. I will also be staying here on future visits. The value-for-money is outstanding for what you get. Towels are also provided.

Callum from United Kingdom, March 23, 2016 at 11:26 pm

The host is an amazing guy, The place is a 10minute walk to everything, The place feels like home as soon as you enter, The area is adorable.

Tommo from United Kingdom, March 13, 2016 at 8:52 pm

We loved this place. Lovely people, lovely comfortable rooms. Location close to city and really good value. Would and did stay again!

James from U.S.A., February 24, 2016 at 6:11 pm

Smaragata Rooms is an excellent choice for staying in Reikjavik! The couple that own the place are super nice and helpful about anything you may want. The location is also excellent. It is close to everything and at the same time away from the noise of the clubs. I highly recomend this small boutique style accomodations!!! this is the best kept secret in town! I will definitl

Elizabeth from United Kingdom, February 11, 2016 at 3:41 pm

Very stylish and fantastic value for money rooms in a great location seconds away from BSI bus terminal and domestic airport and about 15 mins walk to the centre of town. Owners were friendly and helpful and very accommodating; happy to wait up for me to arrive at 1am and relaxed about check out time as there was no one in the rooms straight after us. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. It was really nice to have the use of a full kitchen.

Kerry from United Kingdom, January 4, 2016 at 11:50 pm

Location fantastic Staff really friendly and helpful, plus flexible about arrival & departure. We had a great stay, thank you.
